Large and Massive Vintage Italian Vase in Pink Murano Glass, Sculptural Shapes

About the Item

Many are the different styles of glass that are created on the island of Murano. Blown, sculpted or molded glass is used to create any kind of object, ranging from bowls and vases to sculptures and chandeliers. Colour, then, can add another twist, rendering the nuumber of possible combinations virtually infinite. The present vase is unusually big, heavy and sculptural, with its rounded body and funny "feet" at the base. It has a big hole and is ideal to be used as a flower vase, but can also be displayed alone as a decorative object. What's particularly special and attractive about this piece, apart from the optimal state of preservation, is the unusual size - more than 30cm in height - and its massive weight, giving an impression of solidity that interestingly contrasts with the delicacy of the tones and shape. It is well preserved, shows no cracks, chips or dents but only a pleasant, light and even patina from age, and is unsigned and unmarked.
